Sheng Pu Erh Yi Wu Mahei Xiaoshu Bing Cha - 50g

An exceptional green "Sheng" Pu erh - now available as pieces of a pu erh cake for tasting in a 50-gram package.

The tea leaves were harvested in the village of Ma Hei (麻黑), beneath Yi Wu Mountain (易武), from tea trees growing in harmony with the wild landscape.

The aroma reveals notes of herbs, wood, ripe fruit, and flowers—nuances that gently shift and evolve with each subsequent infusion.
The flavor is already well-matured; against a backdrop of bitterness and subtle acidity, a sweetness unfolds—a quality that will become increasingly pronounced and rounded as the tea ages further.

The liquor is full-bodied yet medium-light, offering a delicate fruitiness and a touch of woody notes. The tea yields approximately 12 infusions, making it an ideal companion for sipping throughout the day.

Nestled among green mountains, the village of Ma Hei is a key area within the Yi Wu region, renowned for its exceptional high-mountain teas. The tea trees grow directly within the forest ecosystem, lending these teas a unique purity, natural quality, and distinct character.

This tea is perfect not only for Pu-erh enthusiasts but also for those wishing to discover the complexity and aging potential of tea.

We recommend rinsing the leaves with hot water before brewing.
